RIPPING SMALL PIECES
[_ WARNING]
Avoid injury from the blade contact. Never make
through-saw cuts narrower than 3/4 in. wide.
1. it is unsafe to rip small pieces. Instead, rip a larger
piece to obtain the size of the desired piece.
2. When a sina!! width is to be ripped, your hand cannot
be safely put between the blade and the rip fence,
therefore, use one or more push sticks to pass the
workpiece completely through and past the blade.
6_ Keep your thumbs off the table top. When your hand
reaches the front edge of the table (2), finish the cut
with a push stick (3) (Fig. X). You can make a push
stick using the pattern on page 23.
7_ The push stick (3) should always be used during al!
ripping operations_
8. Continue pushing the workpiece with the push stick
(3) until it passes the blade guard and clears the rear
of the table.

Never attempt to pull the workpiece backwards during
a cutting operation. This will cause kickback and
serious injury to the user can occur. When the blade
completely stops raise the anti-kickback pawls on
each side of the splitter and slide the workpiece out.
